Howard University caused quite a ruckus when they asked Sean “P Diddy” Combs to give the commencement speech this year. After all, Combs probably flunked out his sophomore year, but went on to incredible success. Howard won’t back down despite complaints, so Diddy will speak. Meanwhile Diddy’s son Justin Combs got a full football scholarship to UCLA, and he also had a 3.75 GPA when he started there last year. Justin takes after his football playing father and it’s a challenge because he is only 5’7”, but so far he’s doing okay and he’s become a valuable player.

Not to be outdone by the Kardashians, P Diddy gathered up his six children to pose for his idea of a family Christmas card. Apparently the three baby-mamas responsible for the kids don’t get along and chose not be part of the holiday greeting. Quincy, 22, is Diddy’s “stepson” and he also has a set of twin girls and another daughter all the SAME age – 7. Diddy was a serial cheater so it’s not surprising the women opted OUT of the picture.

Cameron Diaz, 39, took a lot of undeserved flak for the dress she wore to the Golden Globes, and the short bouncy haircut she got. She was described as “desperate” and ”losing her looks” but that’s not the case. She’s in Paris for Fashion Week where she was photographed leaving her hotel looking like a million bucks. Her latest consort P Diddy was nowhere in sight.

Last summer P Diddy made a big deal out of announcing that he was giving etiquette training to his staffers at Bad Boy Records. The lessons included the proper use of dinnerware at formal events and how to hold a wine glass and eat caviar. Apparently Diddy skipped classes himself because he behaved badly at the CAA pre-Golden Globes party. He threw a tantrum, according to Page Six, when the bar staff would not serve him his own Ciroc vodka. He made a loud fuss but bartenders chose to politely ignore him and go about their business because the party was sponsored by rival Grey Goose vodka.

Sean “P Diddy” Combs REALLY had a good time playing a villain (above in handcuffs) on an episode of “Hawaii Five-0” recently and he wants MORE. He’s trying to coax producers of the CBS series to cast him as a regular. Diddy has a home in Hawaii and spends a lot of time there working on his music. He likes the idea of having a steady acting job while he’s enjoying the tropical paradise and he’s hoping they’ll give him a chance.

P Diddy just one-upped himself by giving his teenage son Justin Dior Combs his SECOND Maybach car. Last year when Justin was 16, Diddy took flak for giving the kid a $300,000 car. This year Justin improved his grades, and according to The Boombox, Diddy rewarded him with a Maybach LIMOUSINE. According to Diddy “He’s an honors student so I wanted to treat him. Like all my kids he prefers the simpler things than the expensive things. Simple tastes.” (Apparently Diddy was not an “honors student” himself) Last year Diddy became irate when journalist Martin Bashir questioned his decision to give his son such a costly car. Diddy responded ”It’s a racist question! You don’t ask white people what they buy their kids!”

P Diddy arrived in London last week to promote his album “Last Train to Paris” and he was feeling under the weather. According to the UK Mirror, he called in no less than 10 doctors for consultation and it was decided he had the flu. Diddy insists he was worried because he’s “only been sick twice in his life.” After a few days of resting in his hotel he announced that he’s planning a free concert for fans next week. He’s also trying to figure out how he can arrange to have lunch with the Queen. Lotsa luck, Diddy.

Like most sane people, we were appalled to learn about P Diddy giving his son Justin Dior (yes, that’s his name) a $360,000 chauffeur driven Maybach for his 16th birthday. Imagine a nightclub birthday party for 1000 people! Does this kid have a chance of not being spoiled rotten? Wouldn’t it be better to buy him a first class education? After that outrageously expensive event we learned something even MORE appalling from Page Six. Diddy rented two THRONES and a $5000 golden CROWN for Justin, which was misplaced at the party. Diddy was afraid he’d have to pay for the missing crown, but it was eventually located in a stylist’s car with Justin’s clothes. A CROWN ? Somehow, EVERYTHING about this spending spree seems tasteless and wrong.

P Diddy is taking a lot of flak for wearing Crocs – especially since he’s a trendsetter in the fashion business. He can easily afford custom made alligator shoes, but he defiantly continues to flaunt his comfortable, but much-maligned, footwear when he’s walking around New York. The Crocs company is delighted – they’re hoping Diddy will make Crocs fashionable – and they’re featuring him on their website.

It took awhile for Lindsay Lohan to recover from her July 4th weekend. We hear she began celebrating early at P Diddy’s white party that started at 2 in the afternoon. She carried on at the after party at Guys & Dolls and was flopped over a couch when the lights came on at 2 AM. She was just about the last to leave. Lindsay had to be helped out the door and huddled in the backset of a friend’s car – probably headed for yet another get together.

This bad boy seems to have calmed down since he got serious about his former pornstar girlfriend and he has his friends wondering WHY. What’s so special about HER? We hear she keeps him satisfied by supplying her MALE porn costars for his entertainment. The bad boy pays each guy $5000 per visit so they are highly motivated to make him happy. It’s a family affair – the girlfriend watches while the bad boy fiddles around with the guys!
